Dedicated to the British Soldiers of WWI. The Great War: 1914-1918
Tom and I had the opportunity to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary with the most considerate traveling companions. We want to take this opportunity to thank each one for contributing to the success of this trip and ensuring a great time. We especially thank, Tom, Ben, Louise, Martin and all our other informative guides for helping us making wonderful, new memories.
Our trip was timed well. The secession vote by the Scots took place while we were touring. In addition, Great Britain spent the year honoring the WWI soldiers who went to their deaths--young boys, whole towns, entire families--100 years ago. We had an opportunity early on in our trip to view the Wiltshire traveling museum, which displayed news clippings, played recordings, and posted soldiers' letters. These current events provided added insight into all things British.
Thank you Rick Steves Tours; we could not have enjoyed our trip more and count ourselves among your followers.
